Its a case study of a medal of honor recipient. It details what he actually did, so obviously it is historically accurate.

The guy was a seventh day evangelist who became a combat medic and won the medal of honour on Okinawa.

I haven't seen the movie.

>>1913671
Are you being sarcastic? Because it totally could be very inaccurate.

>were there any actual nations in Africa before colonization
yes, many

but what do you consider an "actual nation"

>>1913661
Something organized, with thousands of people. Not just small village or tribe.

Anyone got a theory as to why everyone around Uzbekistan hates Uzbekistan?

man I wonder what it must feel like to have been born in leningrad, raised there, and then be relocated to Kyrgyzstan because your parents took a job there, live through the entirety of the USSR, only to retire to some dilapidated commie block there on a pension of 100 euros a month

must feel weird

it's the most populated country in Central Asia, twice the population of say Kazakhstan on 1/6th of it's territory.

Some percentage of uzbeks keep migrating into bordering countries and Russia sometimes creating tensions.

Indian here. We use the term aryan differently from the term indo-european.
Also for some reason the racial and linguistic work of the 19th century was somehow important to India's freedom struggle. Since everything related to the freedom movement is sacred, IE gandhi did no wrong, congress was god, et al. Our political and social system is still stuck in the 19th century belief that sanskrit is the mother of all european languages and Indo-europeans originated from India.

You know how South Koreans believe that Jesus, the Buddha, and confucious were korean? Its the same with indo -europeans being ethnic indians.

So you're saying a lot of india is wewuzing? Where did sanskrit come from then, had to be somewhere, and there must be a reason the consensus among linguists is that it's related to Iranian and all the European lamguages.

>>1913654
>wewuzing
pretty much yeah.

Indian nationalists are still stuck in the 19th century Indophiles singing praise about India because it serves as the best possible smokescreen to their incompetence.
>government not providing large scale fiber optics to increase internet penetration
>better talk about how the mahabharata totally had livestreaming

When you read about some Indian minister say something about how India was flying UFOs in the vedic age, you have to remember that they are talking to their voter base of recently urbanized youth who have been recently educated and don't possess the ability to parse information. The absolute shambles the Indian education system is in doesn't help either since it absolutely shuts down critical thinking.

Apollo stopped Diomedes that one time

Hannibal happened.

>hey greece check out this awesome Iliad fanfiction we wrote

i think with the chain you can bend the weight around a shield or something and hit them, while the mace can be blocked a bit easier
plus the extra force from swinging the weight around must make it hit harder

Aren't you also at a way higher risk of hitting yourself though?

jews have been only pretending to be religious for like 1100 years now. all of them except for the hemetics.

[spoiler]They don't believe in it either.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]They are not even real Jews.[/spoiler]

That's one of the weirdest things about Judaism. And it might tell us a lot about the Jews.
The idea that they're in the know and feel too good about themselves in knowing, not having any desire to convince others otherwise.
To entrench themselves as the privileged class, to view certain lives as expendible.
Like in America, Jews, through the media, they'll have you almost believe this is their land and you're just a visitor.

This statement has no meaning.

Is that what you've learned from your philosophy degree?

Science is yet to conquer consciousness, my dude. Philosophy has the best handhold.

In other words, it's best we continue to understand who we are.

You have to graduate from West Point.

I know a guy from my high school who got in.

He was super-duper smart. If he ends up running the country I'd be fine with it.

>>1912798
Why West Point? Many Generals didn't go to there.
